Fire in my hands – A passion for food in words, photos and recipes…

Today’s late afternoon Sunday lunch was a gorgeous piece of Pork Loin from those fine folk at Parsonage farm. I served it with home made chip roasts, buttered spinach, haricots vert and a light jus..and the crackling was this side of heaven…..that is it – nothing more….nothing less – ’twas perfection on a plate.

Me in a moment…

All I want to do is cook. The kitchen is the centre of my universe. If not there I can be found in a food shop, or writing about food or talking about food- or of course eating..and drinking. I have judged for The Great Taste Awards and I write for on line magazines. This blog is named after our back room which we turned into a little Italian restaurant called 'Alfredo's' after a much missed cat. Friends and family escape in there as often as possible. I write in there too. This site follows my cooking, my musings, my recipes. Thank you for your company! Stay a little while and enjoy!
